We score visual quality and encoding (25%), library depth (15%), streaming and download performance (15%), headset compatibility (10%), update frequency (10%), user experience and navigation (10%), value (8%), and policy transparency, support and privacy information (7%).
Scores are comparative snapshots, not permanent certifications. We review public product information, available playback and format details, catalog presentation, membership terms and the practical path from signup to headset viewing. We revisit rankings when a site changes materially.
We do not inflate a score because a partner pays a higher commission. When evidence is incomplete, we avoid making precise claims about catalog counts, pricing or features that may change without notice.
